DIY Magazine holder


Whilst looking to organise my desk recently I realised just how expensive it was to buy office related equipment. So I made two magazine/book holders and thought it would be great to share as it literally cost nothing to make; and I think they turned out pretty good. I got the inspiration from a blog I came across recently but I can’t find the link now!

All you need is a cereal box and some wrapping paper of your choice and then tape it on. I actually used wallpaper as it is a lot thicker and durable. Super simple and cheap whilst still looking fabulous! 

I hope you enjoyed this post. I can’t believe it is December already, I am so excited for vlogmas. Guaranteed I will compile playlists each day and watch them whilst putting everything else that needs to be done on hold. Standard.

PS. I am contemplating Blogmas (blogging everyday in December) It seems like a big commitment though and I have never really believed in posting  just for the sake of it. I don’t know, thoughts? If I did they would be based around beauty, fashion, lifestyle and I might even write up some more chatty style posts which I don’t really do.

Anyways I hope you enjoyed this post, let me know what you think and if you have any desk staples!

  3. Oh wow, this is such a nifty little idea. I've never thought of using cereal boxes in this way. I'd probably want to put some cardboard on the insides though to strengthen it a bit more.

    1. Thank you for your comment! I have actually used it as ring binder holders and they hold up pretty well but that’s a great suggestion! x
